n the midst of unprecedented times, when the world was confined to their homes and grand celebrations were a distant dream, love still found its way. Zarna and Abhishek’s wedding was a testament to this—an intimate, heartfelt celebration that defied distance, proving that love knows no barriers. Richie Films had the privilege of capturing this beautiful journey, ensuring every special moment was immortalized.
A Love That Withstood the Test of Time and Distance

Zarna and Abhishek’s story began in the corridors of a multinational company, where they worked together. The bond that started with professional interactions soon turned into a beautiful friendship, and before they knew it, love blossomed between them. Their love story was filled with laughter, companionship, and a deep understanding that made them realize they were meant to be together.
When the world went into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many couples had to put their wedding plans on hold. But for Zarna and Abhishek, their love was stronger than any obstacle. They decided to take the plunge and tie the knot, albeit in an unconventional manner—virtually connecting with their families while celebrating the most special day of their lives with a few close friends.

An Intimate North Indian Wedding in Kanakapura
The wedding took place at a serene resort in Kanakapura, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The lush greenery and tranquil surroundings made for the perfect setting for this memorable occasion. With only a handful of friends present physically and their families attending virtually from North India, the wedding was a unique blend of tradition and modernity.
The wedding rituals began at 8:00 AM. The entire ceremony was conducted as per North Indian Hindu traditions, with the priests guiding the couple through the rituals via a laptop. It was heartwarming to see family members actively participating in the wedding from their homes, offering their blessings and sharing their joy through the digital screen. The atmosphere was filled with love, laughter, and warmth as Zarna and Abhishek took their wedding vows, promising to stand by each other for life.
Moments of Love, Joy, and Togetherness
Despite the challenges of organizing a wedding during the lockdown, Zarna and Abhishek made the most of their special day. Their friends played a crucial role in ensuring that everything went smoothly, from setting up the laptop for the virtual ceremonies to helping the couple with their wedding attire and decorations.
The most emotional moment was when Zarna’s parents, who were miles away, witnessed their daughter’s wedding virtually. Their joy, mixed with the longing to be there in person, made for a poignant yet beautiful memory. The couple took extra time to engage with their families, making them feel included in every moment despite the distance.

Capturing the Magic: Richie Films at Work
As wedding photographers, Richie Films had the honor of documenting this once-in-a-lifetime event. The challenge of capturing a virtual wedding was immense, but it also brought new creative opportunities. The emotions, candid moments, and the intimate setting made for some of the most heartfelt wedding photographs.
Every moment was worth capturing—the groom adjusting his sherwani while laughing with his friends, the bride getting emotional as she saw her parents on the screen, the joyous expressions as they exchanged garlands, and the tender couple muhurtham poses that beautifully encapsulated their love. The essence of a destination wedding was felt in the natural beauty of Kanakapura, making the pictures even more mesmerizing.
We also took some stunning pre-wedding photographs around the resort, making use of the scenic backdrop to highlight their chemistry. Wedding poses, especially the couple muhurtham poses, were planned to make the most of the natural lighting and the serene ambiance. The reception couple poses were kept elegant and timeless, reflecting the intimate yet grand nature of their wedding celebration.
